Hi,

I'm afraid I don't understand Roger's latest question as the 
applications for which I use Reaper are not primarily musical.

The reason you use channels three and four on a stereo track is that 
they serve as the auxilliary channels. There's no audio that will be 
coming out across the master and therefore to your final mix on them, so 
they can be used for applications like this,
